“I’ve always believed that the strength of any message whether spoken or written, is in the heart and complexity of the bearer’s journey. Ardy definitely embraces his journey as an inspirational speaker, as he so genuinely shares both practical and profound insights from his own life chapters. His talks are candid and generous, making it easy for any listener to connect and learn. We look forward to hearing from him again, as we know he has so much more to share and so many more people to encourage and motivate- health professionals, patients and families alike. “

“We are indeed blessed to have you as our speaker last night. I just have to reiterate that your talk was one of the best I’ve heard in the many years I’ve been here in this industry. I’m grateful I was able to attend it. All the best to you, Ardy Roberto.”

“Mr. Roberto was able to deliver a well-prepared talk with mastery on the topic. He is a good and inspiring leader himself . Overall, he was an amazing speaker who shared his values openly.

The leadership excellence topic, highlighting the way to Lead with L.I.F.E. was very useful, effective and inspiring. It was an opener, hopefully to lead the future leaders toward the change in their goals in life. It was a good vision casting on how leadership with proper values should be perceived. The topic also raised good talking points, giving real-life scenarios. This topic can be applied immediately in personal, individual development.”
